Iraqi food is rich and diverse, incorporating spices typical of Arabic cooking, such as saffron and mint.
As in other Middle Eastern countries, Iraqi meat dishes often combine vegetables and rice. Iraqui cooking uses two varieties of rice: amber rice in the north, and neggaza in the south. Popular main courses include kebabs, which are skewered chunks of grilled meat; quzi, roasted and stuffed lamb; and kubba, which is minced meat with nuts, raisins and spices. Masgouf is a special dish made from fish that live in the Tigres river. Another popular dish is tripe, a dish made of cow's stomach; there are a number of tripe restaurants in the cities. Most meals are accompanied by flat rounds of bread (samoons).
For dessert, people enjoy some of Iraq's local fruits, rice pudding, Turkish Delight, sesame cookies, or baklava, a pastry made with honey and pistachios layered between filo sheets.
The most widely consumed drinks in Iraq are coffee and tea. Arabic coffee is famous for its strong flavour. In Iraq, people brew their coffee thick and bitter, and serve it black. Tea is usually served in small glasses and drunk sweetened, without milk. Fruit juices and soft drinks are also popular.

With every day pass, our country is getting into more and more trouble. The inflation, unemployment and falling value of dollar are the main concern for our Government but authorities are just sleeping, they don’t want to face the fact. Media is also involve in it, they are force to stop showing the real economic situation to the people. I start getting more concern about my future as well as my family after watching the response of our Government for the people that affected by hurricane Katrina.
According to recent studies made by World Bank, the coming crisis will be far worse than initially predicted. So if you're already preparing for the crisis (or haven't started yet) make sure you watch this video at http://www.familysurvival.tv and discover the 4 BIG issues you'll have to deal with when the crisis hits, and how to solve them fast (before the disaster strikes your town!) without spending $1,000s on overrated items and useless survival books.

Middle eastern food is delicious. Lots of sour and savory dishes, similar to Greek, except they don't eat pork or sausage. They use yogurt in a way similar to how we use sour cream, instead of with fruit. Lots of vegetable dishes and salads, meat is usually grilled or stewed, and there is always bread with things like hummus to dip it in. Hummus is about the consistency of chip dip, made from chickpeas and lots of garlic. This is making me hungry, lol.

If you are asking about the soldiers - they eat MRE's - meals ready to eat - which are basically dried packets of food - my husband used to bring them home from the field with him when he was in the reserves - they have decent snacks in them, but the rest stinks.
